Poem Title:
Poem
I smell something so beautiful! Many different fragrances are drifting toward me. So many sachets of poetry are prettily displayed. Such visual delights! I stoop to relish one - a citrus blend with sweet anise and cinnamon. Ah! How fun this poem is with its taste of licorice! And here’s one that is rather sensuous. Its aroma is the clove, clary sage, bergamot, and rose. How luscious! I linger at this one for a while. . . Now I lean in toward the scent of chamomile. This poem soothes the spirit with its lavender and jasmine blooms in it. Oh, here is one not only sweet but spicy! Coriander wafts my way with cinnamon and ginger. Such a treat to savor! Next I view a bowl filled with myrrh and frankincense. And what else? Why, it’s the earthy scent of sandalwood with a touch of patchouli for good measure. My, this is an epic poem to treasure. Right next to it I spy a tiny one - a packet of herbs and other little things, But oh, how sweet its fragrance of nutmeg, citrus and vanilla. Indeed, I’ve found a gem. And here is one completely fresh - a most creative blend of lemon, lavender and pine. It is divine! Now a strong scent of sweetness comes to me, This time from lavender laced with small petals Of germaniums, and again, the wondrous cinnamon that takes my mind far back to sentimental scenes of childhood. Balsamic and earthy is the final poem that tempts me with cedar wood, spruce and fir - another one with thoughts of life and nature to ponder as I linger one last time. . . Then I must leave this sanctuary. Day after day - how I love to fill my senses with poetry potpourri! May 1, 2016 for Linda's Poetry _______ (fill in the blank) Poetry Contest (hope I did it right this time!)
